A rare find and build for a lovely bi-plane, this Hangar 9 Beast was completed late October 2018. A model that is also no longer produced. This kit sat around for a number of years, still in the box until it was eventually sold and given to me to complete.

The following items were used in the build for this plane;
Model Flight - Dualsky battery's

Perth RC - Futaba R6014HS receiver, Futaba servo arms 
BoomaRC - AR Smart Bus Elite with pin/flag kill switch system and ignition kill, AR7434 servos

Set up on Futaba 18MZ transmitter.

Model Flight - Current re-seller of Hangar 9 kits
What do you get when one of RC's greatest 3D pilots collaborates with one of full-scale aviation's greatest aircraft designers? The Beast – a giant-scale biplane with monoplane-like flight characteristics that blurs the line between 3D and precision aerobatic performance, and more than lives up to its name.

The full-scale Beast is the brainchild of renowned aircraft restoration expert, Kevin Kimball, who actually collaborated with 3D champ and Hangar 9 product developer Quique Somenzini on its design. The brute power of its 410 hp engine combined with the finesse of its neck-snapping 370 degree/second roll rate make it one of the most formidable aerobatic planes ever created. Drawing on his experience with the design of the full-scale Beast, Quique created this licensed 100cc reproduction for Hangar 9. He did so with the full cooperation of Mr. Kimball as well as Bryan Jensen, the Beast's pilot and owner, and Mirco Pecorari who designed the full-scale plane's trim scheme. At the heart of the model's design is a rigid, lightweight airframe that features thinner wings for better top speed and agility.
